    Once your tires loose their traction with the pavement, not even quattro can help ya. I'm sure he was driving pretty damn agressively, thinking the AWD could handle anything.

    You have to get off the brakes and let the car straighten itself out... locking the binders and you'll be sliding off just like that dude, regardless of the car you're in...

    dayuum. It looked like he was going a lot faster than the other cars also. you would think that if he's rich enough to own an r8 he would have enough money to own an suv to drive in that kind of weather

    ^^^ If anything he had the ESP on, as most people don't turn it off in the rain.

    In my experience, I always have ESP off, in rain, snow, spirited driving, etc.

    I've done a complete 180 with ESP on in the rain, under "controlled" conditions.

    you're nuts if you think the car is more stable without ESP.
